Grave Search Yields
No Yemenite Children

Tel Aviv (JTA) — A largely
forgotten and little- known
tragic story from Israel's
early years of statehood
became the focus of atten-
tion last week, when hun-
dreds of Yemenite Jews who
immigrated in the early
1950s descended on Kfar
Yona cemetery near
Netanya.
They were searching for
the unmarked graves of
their children, many of them
infants who died during
their first harsh winter in
the ma' abarot — the tent
cities and tin but hovels
where tens of thousands of
immigrants were temporari-
ly housed at the time.
Hundreds of thOusands of
Yemenites were flown from
Aden between 1950 and
1952, in what was dubbed
"Operation Magic Carpet."
More than 600 of their
children fell ill and were
taken to regular or
makeshift hospitals where
their parents, unfamiliar
with Western ways, lost
track of them.
Rumors surfaced at
various times that Yemenite
babies were "kidnapped"
and put up for adoption by
childless German immigrant
couples and concentration
camp survivors.
Reports surfaced recently

that missing Yemenite
children of that era were
buried at Kfar Yona. Their
parents, elderly now and
distraught, hoped to find
their graves. But they were
disappointed.
Netanya police reported
Nov. 13 that the graves of
120 children were found at
the cemetery.
Time and weather eroded
the markers, but forensic
tests established that the
remains were those of
children from Libya and
other North African coun-
tries brought to Israel at the
same time as the Yemenites.
Nissim Atai, a 75-year-old
Netanya stonemason and
volunteer grave digger,
recalls that he buried 120
North African infants and
young children who died in
epidemics of diphtheria and
typhoid that swept the im-
migrant encampments some
40 years ago.
"There may have been one
or two Yemenite children
among them, but certainly
no more," he said.
He added, "There was no
mass grave. Each child was
buried in his own grave."
The discovery is expected
to revive a long-standing
Yemenite demadd for a state
inquiry into the disap-
pearance of their children.

Diary Confirms
Mencken Hated Jews

Baltimore — The editor of
The Diary Of H.L. Mencken,
which will be published offi-
cially on Jan. 15 by Alfred A.
Knopf but is already on sale,
has acknowledged that his
views on Mencken's anti-
Semitism have changed.
Charles A. Fecher, who in a
1978 book on Mencken,
defended the influential
newspaperman and social
critic against charges of an-
ti-Semitism, now says that
after seeing the diary, "to-
day I would be much less
ready to take such a stand.
Let it be said at onqe, clearly
and unequivocally: Mencken
was an anti-Semite."
Fecher added that those
feelings are "without doubt
the most inexplicable and
least pleasant aspect of his
personality as it is revealed
to us in the diary."
Mencken, the most famed
writer in the history of the
Baltimore Sun, died in 1956.

He had requested that his
diary, which covers the
years 1930 to 1948, be kept
sealed in the vaults of the
Enoch Pratt library here for
25 years after his death.
About one-third of the full
diary will be published next
month.
Earlier reports, including
a lengthy cover story in the
June 6, 1979, issue of the
Baltimore Jewish Times by
Robert Kanigel, revealed
that the Sage of Baltimore
wrote freely of "kikes" and
felt that the Jewish "race"
was "inherently incapable of
civilization." Some of those
writings were not in the
diary but in a folder found at
the Pratt accompanying the
diary.
The diary also reveals
Mencken to be a misan-
thrope and racial bigot who
apparently had pro-Nazi
sentiments during World
War II. ❑
